Hi Ralph
Had a few minutes earlier so looked at the partions on the PC, details are:-
sda1 Ext4 Mount= / size 25GB flag= boot
sda2 " -- size 72GB label=
Homebackup
sda3 " Mount= /Home size 196GB
sda4 swap no mount point size 5GB
swap UUID = 66b0460e-9393-4743-a751-787c8108c410
Should the swap show a mount point and if so where? (/?)
Not checked the UUID against what was shown in your earlier commands.
probably won't get the time to run other commands till weekend (possibly
Sunday)

You might need that to be /sbin/swapon
I think it worked for Clive as it stood. I saw some output this evening
that he brought along and the summary is /etc/fstab names a UUID for
swap, free(1) and swapon(1) confirm there's no swap configured, the UUID
is the same as the partition mentioned in the journal as not available
after a time-out, and over all userspace takes a bit more than three
minutes to become ready.
Clive, the command I mentioned to show all the drives and partitions by
their various names is ‘ls -l /dev/disk/*’. It would also be useful
to have the lines from /etc/fstab again that mentioned swap: ‘grep -w
swap /etc/fstab’.
So paste this on the troublesome desktop machine:
(
set -x
grep -w swap /etc/fstab
ls -l /dev/disk/*
) |&
curl -sSF 'f:1=<-' ix.io
